I've got two Leica neck straps available for sale. Both are in excellent condition, only used a few times, and are barely broken in. Both come with their original boxes.

Strap #1: Leica Neck Strap, Model # 18764, vintage brown.



Strap #2: Leica Carrying A-la-Carte Strap, Model # 14658, burgundy.



$80 each, including shipping. CONUS buyers only, please. Payment via PayPal or Zelle.
 
Nice straps, so tempting. But then, wouldn't I need to buy another Leica body onto which to fit one of these straps? Hmmmm....

Alternate: attach one to my Sears KSX Super SLR??
 
but counts as heresy
Heresy: using a Leica strap on a Sears? Or using a Sears KSX Super?

Surprisingly, the KSX is a more than decent camera with an electronically-controlled shutter that goes from 16sec to 1/1000. I was quite impressed for a $35 camera and really nice (excellent) 50mm ƒ/1.7 lens. Typical mid-century multi-coated 50mm lens, great resolution and color fidelity.

No reason to deny yourself the enjoyment of whatever camera strap you want just because you got a good deal on the camera you want to attach the strap to. (Yes, I have a camera wearing a strap that cost more than the camera itself.)

So do I

In case it's relevant, the Leica branding on the strap is very subtle and probably wouldn't be noticed by anyone (if that matters). It's not like there's a giant red dot on it or anything
